Absurdities. Mars has no electromagnetic field End of story for terraforming Mars. We can move far faster if we concentrate on robotic exploration and forget trying to make things nice for escaping earth.

so if moon is getting closer every year why dont be create a system that could propel the moon to coordinates we want, and make the propelled the objects with resources we need. isnt there a way to determine the content of meteorites without actually physically being in contact of?

someone explain why they think tyson is smart...honestly....hes only spewing shit hes read or is just plain making it up. he is an astrophysicist right??? how does one become an astrophysicist but has never left our atmosphere to conduct the studies ??? people will believe anything if you just put a good title on it

Hello, im an honest internet commenter. I know everything and everything you know is bs. Im more important than you also. I can not go more than one sentence without typing i at least one time, because im better than you. Anyone who comments on this thst does not agree with me is a stupid idiot livong in there moms basement and beat off to purn hub 3 times a day followed up by self loathing crying becauae you are so stupid.

EARTH FIRST; humanity must first evolve past this primitive tribal state and inhabit the planet with a SAPIENT culture or this small garden oasis will be turned into a desert like MARS. Cryptic structural forces are relentlessly undermining the material base of human society. Capitalism, socialism, communism, anarchism will not survive the end of history. The future will be unrecognizable to any of these archaic political paradigms.

The invention of the new society of the future will be birthed by the mother of necessity. The future may be anything but dystopian. The future could be bright. It all depends on whether people can let go of the past to embrace a future beyond the power of money and political economy. Transgressing Political Economy is a step in that direction.

Human society predated social systems. The world’s resources were abundant before economy created scarcity. The world’s resources remain abundant. Economy creates scarcity for sustainable social systems, but most social systems are malevolent. They benefit the few who allocate the systems values and benefit the same few who decide who gets what and how.

Speaking realistically, political economy is unsustainable. We must prepare for its aftermath. The keys to the future were once interred with the bones of our distant ancestors, but now these same keys are in our hands.

What we need is the virtue of humility to learn from our prehistoric ancestors and the courage and will to choose wisely when the time comes.

This is all high talk. I'm no doctor but I can easily tell you we can barely handle s*** on this planet so why the hell are we talkin about nuking Mars to adapt it for better life. Pump down your brakes Earthlings 🤔
